Iterative Macro used in the "Superstore" project.

This iterative macro uses iterative process to find the nearest location using spatial analytics. This macro aims to solve the "Traveling Salesman Problem", but it needs an upstream macro that will run this process for other combination of starting points, which is further solved in "Shortest Route Batch" Macro.

Batch Macro used in the "Superstore" Project.

This batch macro uses batch process to find the nearest location using spatial analytics. This macro aims to solve the "Traveling Salesman Problem", and it is used to produce many outputs using batches. It needs an upstream macro, that will actually find the most optimal route, using MIN function, which is tackled further in the "Shortest Route Checker" Standard Macro.

Standard Macro used in "Superstore" project.

This standard macro feeds iterative and batch process to find the nearest location using spatial analytics. This macro aims to solve the "Traveling Salesman Problem", but it's limitation is the longer run times, depending on the amount of locations it needs to connect and check.

Using Auto Field Tool in Alteryx - Input

  • Screen-shot below presents the configuration of the auto filed tool. The metadata tab is selected on purpouse, as the tool will convert the string data types, as in the output anchor. The configuration of the tool comes down only to selection of the fileds, of which types we whish to adjust. Auto1.png

Using Auto Field Tool in Alteryx - Output

  • Screen-shot below presents the output anchor of the auto field tool, with already converted file types. As seen, some types like double or byte were easily recognizable by the tool, and got changed from string. Auto2.png
